ChainCatcher News: CyrusOne has confirmed that its data center in Aurora, Illinois, experienced a market outage lasting over 10 hours for CME Group operations due to human error. On-site staff and contractors failed to follow standard procedures to drain the cooling towers before the onset of cold weather, ultimately causing the cooling system to overload and temperatures to rise. CyrusOne is jointly owned by KKR & Co. and Global Infrastructure Partners. This incident has raised concerns about the reliability of financial market infrastructure. Previously, on November 28, CME Group’s commodity futures trading was suspended.
